Landforms
The three main types of landforms are plains, plateaus, and mountains.
Plains are large, flat areas. Plateaus are relatively flat, raised areas of land made up of nearly horizontal rocks that have been uplifted. Mountains rise high above the surrounding land.

35. Reviewing Main Ideas 2
Viewpoints
Latitude and longitude form an imaginary grid system that enables points on Earth to be located exactly.
Latitude is the distance in degrees north or south of the equator. Longitude is the distance in degrees east or west of the prime meridian.

36. Reviewing Main Ideas 2
Viewpoints
Earth is divided into 24 time zones. Each time zone represents a 1-h difference. The International Date Line separates different calendar days.

37. Reviewing Main Ideas 3
Maps
Mercator, Robinson, and conic projections are made by transferring points and lines on a globe’s surface onto paper.
Topographic maps show the elevation of Earth’s surface. Geologic maps show the types of rocks that make up Earth’s surface.
Remote sensing is a way of collecting information from a distance. Satellites are important remote-sensing devices.
